CALL.net : VIDEO | UN: Hawkguy

[weekend_avenger]

[Hi! here's a crooked camera angle of Clint, he sort of looks like he just woke up-- or just had an exciting brawl with a box of bandaids. Either way it's not a good look.

He scratches at at least a day's worth of scruff on his chin and reaches to straighten his CALL device out... it's still crooked but A for effort, right?]

So this lets me talk to all you guys in that crazy city, right? Cities... place, wold? I kinda got the run down -- and had a look around? Also pretty sure I almost had to fight a dragon but...

Um. Hi, I'm Clint and I'm the new guy?

Where do I get coffee around here?

[goblinjr]

Uh. [Whaaat. Harry's just kind of... raising a brow at you, Clint.] And I think I'll pass on elaboration.

Not that I know of. Just some hoity-toity jerks now and again. Oh, and you might get hit on. But other than that, you can probably enjoy your coffee in peace.

[weekend_avenger]

I don't guess I could get an Uber in this city?

[story_and_teller]

Maybe. [ She sounds skeptical. ] You could try. [ A little sigh comes over the speaker. ] I've been working on an app, but there are still too many bugs even for an alpha release.

[ Mixing programming and magic is... Tricky. Clearly that makes Loki the best person for the job. ]

[weekend_avenger]

Oh, it was kind of a joke? [It just didn't deliver well because he's kinda perpetually half-asleep] Like an Uber horse... [He doesn't know much about apps and programing, he still has trouble resetting the clock on his VCR. he still HAS a VCR.]

[story_and_teller]

A horse! Now, that's not a bad idea. Give me a look at where you're at; there should be horses for hire in Sorcery. [ Her voice warms. ] Well done.

[weekend_avenger]

That was pretty much the whole story anyway. [A careless shrug with that]

Well I'd better get romanced a little if i'm going to be hanging out in a entire city for it. Maybe I'll get a free coffee out of the deal.

[weekend_avenger]

Uh... Can I take my horse with me? Or are they going to make me trade it out for a flying car in future-town?

[story_and_teller]

You'll get some funny looks, but nobody'll stop you. Probably.

[weekend_avenger]

Oh see, that I'm used to.

[story_and_teller]

Wonderful! It should speed your journey, then.

[goblinjr]

[Well, good. MOVING ON.]

Why don't you give it a shot? Woo all the coffee shop baristas and see how many free cups of coffee you can get. [He's mostly joking. ...Mostly.]

[weekend_avenger]

I like you, you're good at plans. [He's probably gonna try it.]

[dragonring]

Yeeeah, Sorcery is stuck in medieval times. So watch out for the dragons, and the goblins, and the sirens, and-- you get the idea. But there's still a subway line that connects all the sections of the city if you want to get out of there.

[Dave nods, agreeing with that bet.]

I mean, they all have their super crazy days? But I think they made Tomorrow the welcome hub for a reason.

[weekend_avenger]

I'm pretty sure the guy that runs this place i'm staying at is an ogre... but I didn't want to say anything. [He drops his voice in a conspicuous whisper]

Oh, subway! [He was paying some attention right? he should know this] I was just going to... borrow a horse.

un: a.stark

[iron_man]

[ Jesus, can this guy hold the camera straight? Although, by the bandaids on his face, maybe he really can't? Who knows.

Either way, Tony raises an eyebrow slightly. ]

A dragon? Huh. Where were you?

[weekend_avenger]

[to his credit he just kinda woke up]

Um... Harry Potter land I think? I mean, I still am, but there are less dragons in this inn thing.

[He drops his chin in his hand.] You look like a guy I know.

[iron_man]

I've seen the flying cars, but haven't encountered any dragons.

[ Tony narrows his eyes slightly for a moment, as if trying to figure something out. ] Yeah? Must be a handsome fellow.

I'm Tony.

[weekend_avenger]

You're probably hanging out in the wrong place.

He thinks he is. [A beat and Clint snorts. And it's not a surprise to him because he's done this whole 'alternate reality' versions, or 'clones', or'robot body doubles' song and dance before. Was that also in the brochure?]

As in Tony Stark? Oh no, then you two would probably love each other.

[dragonring]

[Ok, that makes Dave chuckle.] He's the cool kind of ogre as long as you don't start fights or accidentally burn anything with magic.

[That's totally not personal experience. Nooope.]

Ah, you can still borrow a horse if you want? It'll just take longer. And you'll find more than dragons on your way.

[iron_man]

Nope, I'm exactly where I want to be.

[ Tony's starting to get familiar with the whole alternate versions concept, considering he now knows two Captain America's (three, if you count his own), and he chuckles. While he's curious about his other self, he's kind of glad that he hasn't encountered 'him' just yet. ]

As in Tony Stark, yep.

I know a Clint. Barton, yeah?

[weekend_avenger]

I'd say the one and only, but that's not true.

[He does an invisible hat tip in greeting, except then he loses a grip on his device and it goes cluttering down on the table.]

I'd ask if other me is like, dead, or a super villain, but I probably don't want to know. [His voice keeps going, apparently he's given up on propping the damn thing.]

[weekend_avenger]

Nope, fresh out of magic. I don't even have any of the good sort of trick-arrows, so no fire today.

[Yeah but horse!] Well I'm pretty sure Dragon was the worst I could find? [Please say the worst thing out here was dragons... because he can totally deal with like, orcs and goblins or whatever sherwood forest here wanted to throw at him. He's like, a superhero and stuff.]

[iron_man]

[ Tony shakes his head when the phone tumbles out of sight, and he lets out a chuckle under his breath. ]

If it helps, you're neither. Er, he's neither. He's part of the Avengers, and we just got done fighting a pretty big alien invasion in Manhattan.

[ He's really not going to mention how Loki brainwashed him, because no. He knows the Clint from his timeline is already struggling with that, and the last thing he wants is to pass that along to this Clint. He knows how that feels like - he's still struggling with knowing he created an evil AI in some other timeline. ]

Are you alright? What the hell happened to your face?

[weekend_avenger]

[Yeah, no, he has a list a mile long of his own problems, he probably doesn't need to know that his luck is shit no matter what reality he's in.]

Oh Aliens... Which ones? Kree? Skurlls? Ugh I hate Skrulls...

[He tips the device up again.] Oh, this? I fell into a car. And then... you know, dragon.

[iron_man]

[ Don't worry, Clint. Tony's a dick, but he's not completely heartless. Most of the time. ]

Chitauri. So...aliens are the norm for you?

[ He nods a little, although the mention that he fell into a car makes him quirk an eyebrow again. ] Right. You alright?
